Jefferson Lab considers no activity
to be so urgent or important that its standards for environment, safety, or
health (ES&H) may be compromised.Therefore, all individuals at Jefferson Lab have the responsibility, and
authority, to stop work when conditions appear to pose a hazard.This stop-work and re-start program is
provided to ensure the safety of individuals, equipment, and the environment.

10 CFR
851 Worker Safety and Health Program
(§851.20(b)(8)) specifically gives every worker the right to decline assigned
work if they have a reasonable belief it may pose an imminent risk of physical
harm.Further, a worker has the right to
stop work if a dangerous condition arises.

ES&H Manual Chapter
3330 Appendix T4 Work Re-Start Procedure ensures
the safety of individuals, equipment, and the environment after a work
delay.Characteristics of each delay,
including urgency, resources, timeliness of communications, etc,
differ.This document provides the
minimum requirements to ensure that safe, effective work planning has been
enacted prior to work re-start.
